Ethics in Prospect Research
Prospect research often presents situations where the answer isn't always clear-cut. How do you approach prospect research with social media? When is political giving information relevant? At what point should general counsel be consulted? What happens if we miss something in a due diligence review, or negative news surfaces after a gift is accepted? Join this informal networking discussion to share experiences, discuss challenges, and learn how peers navigate ethical questions in their research practices.
